In this session, we are reducing the ignorance in the copilot-sdk/1917-java-embed-rust-cli-runtime-remove-before-merge/1917-embed-cli-runtime-ignorance-reduction-plan.md by working through the items in Section 3 for which we do not yet have a Resolution:. For starters, read and understand that whole document.

Today we start with ### 3.7 — Native binary extraction and caching.

I have provided preliminary answers inline, and some questions as well. Respond.

Question: What is the exact extraction and caching strategy for the runtime.node binary?

ADR-007 proposes extracting from classpath to ~/.copilot/runtime-cache/<version>/<classifier>/runtime.node. Open questions:

  1. Version source: Where does the version come from? getClass().getPackage().getImplementationVersion() relies on the JAR manifest. Is this set by the build? What about running from an IDE (un-jarred classes)?

Here is the Resolution: for this question: it is locked with the version of the primary artifactId in the top level POM.

  1. Atomicity: If two JVM processes start simultaneously and both try to extract, how do we prevent corruption? Options: temp file + atomic rename, file locking, check-then-extract with size/checksum verification.

List the pros and cons of each option here. Then we might do a spike.

  1. Cache invalidation: Should we verify integrity (e.g., file size or hash) on each startup, or trust the version-keyed path?

What do the .NET and Rust do?

  1. Permissions: On Unix, the extracted binary needs chmod +x. The ADR's cached.toFile().setExecutable(true) works — but note runtime.node is a shared library, not an executable. Shared libraries loaded via dlopen (which JNA uses internally) do not need execute permission on most Linux systems. Verify.

Look at the research spike spike-3-6-platform-detection-linux-x64. I believe this has the answer, or can be modified to provide an answer.

  1. Cleanup: Should old versions in the cache be cleaned up? The .NET and Rust SDKs don't do this.

Here is the Resolution: for this question: Do not clean up old versions of the cache.

Updated todo list

I’ll read the full plan and the Linux spike, then trace the .NET and Rust extraction implementations so the answers are grounded in current code.

The plan confirms 3.7 is the only target for this pass. The relevant comparison is split: .NET stages the native library through MSBuild, while Rust has both build-time download caching and runtime extraction behavior, so I’m narrowing into those exact paths and the Linux permission experiment.

Two distinctions are now clear. .NET does no runtime-startup integrity validation, and Rust validates the downloaded npm archive strongly but treats the already-extracted runtime library much more lightly than its CLI executable; I’m checking the exact race and permission semantics before writing the 3.7 resolution.

The atomicity options are not mutually exclusive in the way the draft suggests: temp-file plus atomic publish is the core corruption-prevention mechanism, while checksum/size validation is the acceptance rule; a lock is optional coordination. I’m going to run a disposable Linux dlopen probe with a mode-0644 shared object, then encode that result and the comparison table into Section 3.7.

That may not work, because I never installed WSL on this machine. However, if you need it, we can certainly install it.

No WSL installation is needed. The existing Linux spike may already contain CI or container evidence; I’ll inspect its artifacts and use an available container only if the recorded result is insufficient.

The plan’s 3.7 section is still unresolved, and the Linux spike is a Maven project with prior build output. I’m checking whether it already tested load permissions, while locating the exact .NET and Rust cache code for a faithful comparison.

The spike currently proves only libc detection, not shared-library permissions. Rust’s current implementation is more nuanced than the preliminary note: its embedded CLI cache uses atomic publication plus integrity markers, while the separately staged runtime.node path needs its own examination. I’ll separate those two behaviors in the answer and extend the Linux spike with a direct JNA load test if a local container engine is available.

The source already gives strong permission evidence: Rust deliberately archives the runtime library as mode 0644 while the CLI executable is 0755, and its loader publishes the library without adding execute bits. That establishes intended Linux behavior; a direct dlopen/JNA probe will provide the empirical verification requested rather than relying only on convention.

Completed with input: {}

Docker is configured, so WSL remains out of scope. The local hypothesis is precise: a regular ELF shared object at mode 0644 loads and executes through JNA because dlopen requires read access, not the executable bit; the cheapest disconfirming check is a tiny .so built in Linux, chmodded to 0644, then invoked from the existing Java spike.

I’m going to make the spike self-verifying: add a tiny shared-library fixture, load it through JNA from an explicit path, assert that no execute bit is set, and invoke an exported function. This keeps the permission conclusion reproducible on any Linux Docker host or CI runner.

The spike now contains the executable check. I’ll first package it with the configured Java 25 environment from the repository’s java directory, then run the Linux-only fixture in Docker; these are separate checks so a Java compilation issue is distinguishable from a container/runtime issue.

The Java build passes cleanly. Next I’m testing the actual Linux invariant in an isolated container filesystem, which matters because Windows bind mounts do not reliably model POSIX mode bits; the .so and chmod 0644 will happen inside the container, not on NTFS.

Docker ran successfully with no WSL, and confirmed mode 0644, but the returned excerpt captured the platform PASS line instead of the decisive JNA PASS line. I’m tightening that check before treating the permission question as resolved.

The delegated runner returned a credible summary but also unrelated internal chatter, so I’m not using it as evidence. I’ll run one controlled Docker command directly and capture the decisive mode, PASS lines, and exit code.

The first direct probe correctly created mode 0644 but exposed a container setup defect: Ubuntu’s default-jre-headless was Java 11, while the spike targets Java 17. I’ll rerun the identical check with OpenJDK 17; no code change is needed.

The empirical result is now decisive: on Ubuntu 22.04/glibc with OpenJDK 17, a mode-0644 .so loaded and executed through JNA, exit code 0. I’m incorporating that evidence into 3.7 along with a careful distinction: Rust packages the runtime as 0644, but its current shared temp-file helper incidentally changes the extracted copy to 0755; that execute bit is unnecessary, not proof of a requirement.

I have enough evidence to close 3.7. The selected design will use lock-free atomic publication, a cheap regular/non-empty cache sanity check rather than hashing 50 to 65 MB on every startup, no execute-bit mutation, and no cleanup; the version will come from a Maven-filtered resource so IDE runs do not depend on a JAR manifest.

Section 3.7 is now resolved in the plan, including the option table and exact extraction algorithm. I’m doing the final consistency check on the edited plan and spike files, then I’ll summarize the one caveat discovered during validation.

One stale sentence above the new resolution still recommended setting the execute bit, contradicting the verified outcome. I’m correcting that summary line so future readers do not stop at the obsolete recommendation.

Updated todo list

Checked , no problems found

Resolved Section 3.7 in the 1917-embed-cli-runtime-ignorance-reduction-plan.md.

Key decisions:

  • POM artifact version via filtered properties resource.
  • Unique temp file plus atomic move; no locking.
  • Regular/non-empty startup check; no recurring hash.
  • No cache cleanup.
  • No execute permission required.

Extended the README.md with a JNA permission probe. Docker verified:

INFO: PASS: JNA loaded and invoked a shared library...
JAVA_EXIT_CODE=0

No WSL installation was needed. Maven build and diagnostics pass.

The intervening edits are compatible: the plan adds emphasis to the “no locking” decision, and the C fixture is unchanged semantically. Diagnostics are clean; I’m checking the exact changed-file set and branch before staging.

The only extra artifact is dependency-reduced-pom.xml, generated by the Shade build and not part of the spike design; I’ll leave it untracked and exclude it from the commit. The new C directory is intentional because it contains the permission fixture; I’m verifying the remaining diffs before staging exactly five files.

The intended files are consistent and the generated reduced POM only mirrors the Shade transformation. I’m removing that build artifact from the working tree, then I’ll stage the five source/documentation files and create the commit.

Now we come to ### 3.8 — JNA dependency management. Do not edit the plan directly. Let us dialog first and I will tell you when it is time to update the plan.

Question: How should JNA be added as a dependency, and what version constraints apply?

The Java SDK currently has no JNA dependency. Adding it introduces:

  1. Version selection: JNA 5.x is current. The latest is 5.16.0 (as of 2025). It supports Java 8+. The SDK targets Java 17.

Surely the latest Java 17 Microsoft build of OpenJDK has a more recent version of JNA. Please check that.

  1. Transitive impact: JNA brings jna-platform optionally. We likely only need jna (core), not jna-platform.

Yes, go with the recommendation of jna.

  1. Scope: Should JNA be a required dependency or optional? If the SDK works without native binaries (subprocess transport), JNA is only needed for InProcess transport. Making it <optional>true</optional> means consumers using only CLI transport don't pull it in.

Yes, go with the resolution of optional true.

  1. GraalVM native-image: JNA has established native-image.properties in its JAR. Verify this works for the callback pattern we need.

We need to do a spike here.

Tell me what I need to install on this system so we can do the spike.

16:32 Response

Updated todo list

I’ll verify the current JNA release independently from Microsoft OpenJDK, then inspect the existing callback spike and GraalVM/JNA metadata so the installation list is minimal and specific to this Windows system.

The first correction is clear: JNA is not part of any OpenJDK distribution. Microsoft OpenJDK’s current Java 17 build is 17.0.20, while JNA is a separate Maven dependency whose current Maven Central release is 5.19.1; the JDK vendor does not determine the JNA version. Next I’m checking GraalVM’s exact Windows prerequisites and what is already installed here.

For the spike, we should use the already-proven Rust callback DLL rather than invent another native fixture. The unresolved tooling question is whether this machine already has GraalVM Native Image and the required MSVC/Windows SDK; I’m inventorying those now and inspecting JNA 5.19.1’s actual JAR metadata rather than relying on the older plan wording.

This machine already has Docker, Rust, and the compiled Windows callback DLL, but it lacks both native-image and the Windows native compiler toolchain. There are therefore two viable spike routes: a zero-install Linux Docker spike, or a native Windows spike requiring GraalVM plus Visual Studio Build Tools; I’m checking JNA’s packaged metadata to see whether the Docker route exercises the same configuration we care about.

For this spike, do not modify the existing spike. Rather, copy the existing Rust spike to a new one called `spike-3-7-graal-research.

16:39 Response

Updated todo list

I’ll keep the existing callback spike untouched. Before copying, I need to pin down the intended source scope and the requested numbering, since this work is Section 3.8 but the new name says spike-3-7-graal-research.

Analyzing your answers...

We’ll create spike-3-8-graal-research as a clean copy of all three Spike 3.4 projects, excluding target directories and generated dependency-reduced-pom.xml files. The immediate check will compare relative file lists and hashes against the source, which will also prove the original spike was not modified.

16:39 Prompt

So, what must I install so you can do the proposed 3.8 spike?

16:40 Response

Updated todo list

Install these two components:

  1. GraalVM Community JDK 25 for Windows x64, including native-image

    • Download the Windows x64 archive from https://www.graalvm.org/downloads/
    • It can coexist with Microsoft OpenJDK.
    • We will point JAVA_HOME to it only while running the spike.
  2. Visual Studio 2022 Build Tools

    • Select the Desktop development with C++ workload.
    • Ensure these components are selected:
      • MSVC C++ x64/x86 build tools
      • Windows 11 SDK

PowerShell installer for Build Tools:

winget install --id Microsoft.VisualStudio.2022.BuildTools --source winget

Then use Visual Studio Installer to add the C++ workload and Windows 11 SDK.

You do not need to install:

  • WSL
  • JNA manually; Maven will fetch net.java.dev.jna:jna:5.19.1
  • Rust; cargo and rustc are already installed
  • Maven or another JDK
  • A native test DLL; callback_test.dll already exists

Also, Microsoft OpenJDK does not contain JNA. They are separately versioned products: Microsoft OpenJDK 17 is currently 17.0.20, while Maven Central’s current JNA release is 5.19.1.

The first inventory found GraalVM correctly but lost several command outputs, so it cannot support a readiness decision. I’m rerunning the checks directly with explicit result markers, sourcing the required Java environment before temporarily switching that shell to GraalVM.

Yes. Everything required is available:

  • Oracle GraalVM 25.0.4 with native-image
  • Visual Studio Build Tools 17.14
  • MSVC 14.44 with cl.exe and link.exe
  • Windows 11 SDK 10.0.26100.0
  • Maven 3.9.14
  • Rust 1.96.0

The spike supports two separate actionable conclusions: ordinary JVM delivery works with core JNA alone, while GraalVM Native Image compatibility must not be claimed for callback-based transport on the tested Windows stack. I’m reading the exact question wording and adjacent decisions so the resolution answers each part directly.

Now we come to ### 3.9 — runtime.node entrypoint argument format

Question: What arguments does copilot_runtime_host_start expect, and how are they determined?

The .NET PR passes an entrypoint path and args. The Rust PR similarly passes entrypoint and args as byte buffers. We need to understand:

  1. What is the entrypoint parameter? Is it the path to the runtime.node binary itself, or a path to a Node.js entry script?
  2. What are the args? JSON-formatted startup options? CLI-style flags?
  3. Does the host need the runtime.node file path passed as entrypoint, or does it use the loaded library's own location?
  4. How does authentication context (GitHub token, proxy URLs for E2E) flow into the in-process host?

Spike needed: Read the copilot_runtime_host_start implementation in github/copilot-agent-runtime src/runtime/src/interop/cabi.rs to understand the expected arguments. Alternatively, study how the .NET and Rust SDKs construct the entrypoint and args.

We will do a net new spike for this, called spike-3-9-deep-entrypoint-questions. But before we begin, let's ask ourselves, are these four questions in 3.9 sufficent to reduce ignorance on this point enough for the assignee?

Surely there are other parameters that beg similar questions. No?

17:34 Response

Updated todo list

Reading the full plan to understand the context around 3.9 and what the .NET/Rust PR analysis already established, before forming a view on gaps.

Read , lines 1 to 80

Read , lines 545 to 700

Good. Now I have the full picture. Let me reason about this carefully before answering.

The four existing questions are not sufficient, and the problem runs deeper than just missing questions. Here is the analysis:


Problem 1 — The question misidentifies the actual parameter names

The C ABI table already established at the top of the plan shows copilot_runtime_host_start takes argv_json and env_json, not "entrypoint" and "args". The question text was written against an older reading of the .NET PR and has not been reconciled with the corrected signature. Questions 1, 2, and 3 are therefore asking about a parameter that does not exist under that name. Question 4 is the only one clearly aimed at a real concern (env_json).


Problem 2 — connection_open has three nullable metadata parameters that get zero attention

The ABI table shows:

(uint32_t server_id,
 void(*on_outbound)(...), void* user_data,
 const uint8_t* ext_source, size_t ext_source_len,
 const uint8_t* ext_name,   size_t ext_name_len,
 const uint8_t* conn_token, size_t conn_token_len)

ext_source, ext_name, and conn_token are listed as "nullable metadata buffers" but nothing in the plan explains:

  • What they are semantically (extension identity? per-connection auth? telemetry routing?).
  • Whether passing null is safe or whether the runtime silently omits features.
  • Whether conn_token is a per-connection auth token distinct from the global auth in env_json, or the same token in a different place.
  • What encoding they use (UTF-8 string? JSON? opaque bytes?).

An implementer today would have to guess all four of those.


Problem 3 — user_data is a Java-specific hazard not addressed anywhere

void* user_data is passed to connection_open and echoed back on every on_outbound invocation. In C/Rust/C# that is trivially an opaque cookie. In Java it is dangerous: you cannot pass a raw Java object as void* — the GC can move or collect it. The correct Java patterns (a stable index into an internal table, or a Native.getNativePeerHandle) need to be established before writing production code. Neither the question text nor the spike scope mentions this.


Problem 4 — Wire format of connection_write and on_outbound data is unspecified

The table says "Write a JSON-RPC frame." What is a "frame"? Length-prefixed? Newline-delimited? Header+body like HTTP? The callback also receives data + len — same format coming back? The existing JsonRpcClient in the SDK already speaks a specific framing (LSP content-length headers). Whether the native runtime uses that same framing or something simpler is not answered and needs to be looked up from the ABI implementation.


Problem 5 — env_json key space is entirely unspecified

Question 4 asks "how does auth context flow in" but does not enumerate the actual keys the runtime accepts. An implementer needs the full set: token key name, proxy key names, log-level key, embedded-host flag, and anything else — so they can construct the env_json object correctly. "Study how .NET and Rust construct it" is the spike direction, but the question should make the deliverable explicit: produce a complete key inventory.


Problem 6 — Server concurrency model is absent

Can multiple connections be opened on a single server handle simultaneously? The .NET PR uses a Channel-backed duplex stream (implying one stream per connection), and the Rust PR uses FfiShared. Whether the runtime supports N concurrent connections per host, or exactly one, directly affects the transport class design (shared handle vs. per-connection instance).


Summary of what the spike needs to answer

The existing four questions should be replaced or expanded to cover at least these concerns:

# Parameter / concern What must be determined
a argv_json Required content, valid keys, minimum viable array, what --embedded-host triggers
b env_json Complete key inventory: auth token key, proxy keys, log level, any others
c ext_source, ext_name Semantics, encoding, whether null is always acceptable
d conn_token Relationship to env_json auth; per-connection vs. global; null-safe?
e user_data Java-safe strategy: raw pointer, indirection table, or JNA CallbackReference cookie
f Frame format Wire format of connection_write input and on_outbound output
g Server concurrency How many simultaneous connections per server handle
h Handle lifecycle Legal call sequences, reuse of handles after close/shutdown

Recommendation before writing the spike

Update section 3.9 in the plan to restate the questions against the actual parameter names, add questions (c) through (h) above, and make the spike deliverable explicit: a complete call-by-call reference covering every parameter across all five ABI functions, not just host_start. The spike is studying source, not writing code, so the scope increase is cheap.

Shall I update 3.9 now with this expanded question set?

17:37 Prompt

We will absolutely update the plan. But first, for your "Problem 6 — Server concurrency model is absent" we did a prior spike for this: in section 3.4. The one where we selected MR-JAR and virtual threads. Re-read that section and the spike code, and see if it answers your Problem 6 concerns.

Reading section 3.4 of the plan and the relevant spike source in parallel.

Read , lines 177 to 300

Read , lines 1 to 120

Read , lines 1 to 120

Having read both, here is my honest assessment: Section 3.4 answers the Java-side half of Problem 6 completely, but not the runtime-side half.

What 3.4 does answer

The MR-JAR spike establishes the per-connection object model: one QueueInputStream per connection handle, one reader thread per connection handle. On JDK 25 that reader is a virtual thread that unmounts from its carrier while blocked on queue.take(), so N concurrent connections cost N virtual threads, not N OS threads. That directly answers "how does Java handle multiple simultaneous connections cheaply." Problem 6 as a Java-engineering concern is resolved.

What 3.4 does not answer

The spike fixture's connection_open is a stub that always returns handle 7 and spawns one burst-sender thread. It tests that one connection's threading works; it does not call connection_open a second time on the same server handle while the first is still open, so the actual runtime's behavior under multiple concurrent connections was never exercised. The real question — does copilot_runtime_host_start produce a handle that supports N concurrent connection_open calls — is not answered by the spike.

Why it may not need to be in 3.9 either

The ABI table already gives a strong implicit answer: connection_open returns a distinct connection_id, and connection_close/connection_write take that connection_id — not the server handle. A handle-per-connection design at the C ABI level would be pointless if only one connection were allowed. The .NET PR's Channel-backed streams and the Rust PR's per-connection_id CallbackState both follow the same single-connection-per-handle-is-the-common-case pattern, without explicitly advertising multi-connection support. So the most defensible position is: the ABI design implies multiple connections are supported, but the expected production usage is one connection per server handle (matching .NET and Rust), and any confirmed multi-connection behavior belongs in 3.10's error-handling section (what happens if connection_open is called twice without closing) rather than 3.9.

Revised verdict on Problem 6

Withdraw it as a gap in 3.9. It belongs as a sub-question under the spike deliverable — "confirm whether the runtime permits multiple concurrent connections per server handle, or whether one-at-a-time is assumed" — but it is not a blocker of the same weight as the unaddressed metadata parameters (ext_source, ext_name, conn_token) or the env_json key inventory. Those remain the real gaps.

Shall I proceed to rewrite 3.9 in the plan now?

I have four authoritative sources to compare against. Here is the verdict:


The ABI table's five function signatures are correct. Parameter counts, types, and return types all match Rust ffi.rs, .NET FfiRuntimeHost.cs, Go ffihost.go, and Python _ffi_runtime_host.py exactly. No signature-level error.


Three things in the table's descriptive column are wrong or misleading:

1 — The argv_json example is factually wrong.

The plan says: argv_json is a JSON array (e.g., ["copilot","--embedded-host"]).

Every SDK implementation produces:

["/full/path/to/copilot-binary", "--embedded-host", "--no-auto-update", ...extra-args]

or, for a .js dev entrypoint:

["node", "/full/path/to/index.js", "--embedded-host", "--no-auto-update", ...extra-args]

Two specific errors: argv[0] is the full path to the entrypoint binary, not the bare string "copilot"; and --no-auto-update is always required and always present in every SDK. Its comment (identical in both Rust and .NET) explains why: "Pin the worker to the bundled pkg matching the loaded cdylib, instead of drifting to a newer version under the user's ~/.copilot/pkg (ABI skew)." Omitting it allows the runtime to auto-update itself to a different ABI version, breaking the loaded library.

2 — host_start is described as if it returns immediately; it does not.

Both Rust and .NET explicitly document: "host_start blocks until the worker connects back and signals readiness (up to ~30s), and must not run on an async executor thread." The Java implementation must call it on a blocking thread (the exact pattern the Rust SDK uses: tokio::task::spawn_blocking; .NET uses Task.Run). This affects the FfiRuntimeHost threading design and is not mentioned anywhere in the plan.

3 — The three nullable connection_open parameters are always null in every real implementation.

The plan calls ext_source, ext_name, and conn_token "nullable metadata buffers" and leaves their semantics open. Every SDK passes all three as null with length 0:

  • Rust: std::ptr::null(), 0, std::ptr::null(), 0, std::ptr::null(), 0
  • Go: nil, 0, nil, 0, nil, 0
  • .NET: extSource: null, extSourceLen: 0, extName: null, extNameLen: 0, connToken: null, connTokenLen: 0

Questions 5–7 in the rewritten 3.9 are still worth answering to understand what those parameters mean, but the empirical answer from all four SDKs for "what do I pass right now" is: always null. The plan could say that.


One important fact that is completely absent from the table:

4 — Only one cdylib can be loaded per process.

Go, Python, and .NET all enforce this with a process-wide guard:

"The cdylib may only be loaded once per process; a second load of a different path is unsupported (matches the .NET/Node/Python/Rust hosts)."

This has implications for test isolation and for the Java FfiRuntimeHost design; it is not mentioned anywhere in the plan.


One thing the plan got right that the old spike fixture got wrong (important for 3.9):

The plan says connection_write writes a "JSON-RPC frame." The actual frame format, confirmed by all four SDKs, is the same LSP Content-Length: framing already used by the existing JsonRpcClient. The Spike 3.4 fixture used a 4-byte length prefix as a local testing convention — that is wrong for the production protocol, but it doesn't matter because the spike was testing threading, not framing. For production, no new framing code is needed; JsonRpcClient's existing reader/writer plugs straight in.

Shall I now update the plan with these four corrections?

We will update the plan, of course. But first this:

2 — host_start is described as if it returns immediately; it does not.

Both Rust and .NET explicitly document: "host_start blocks until the worker connects back and signals readiness (up to ~30s), and must not run on an async executor thread." The Java implementation must call it on a blocking thread (the exact pattern the Rust SDK uses: tokio::task::spawn_blocking; .NET uses Task.Run). This affects the FfiRuntimeHost threading design and is not mentioned anywhere in the plan.

Let me check both spike implementations for how they call host_start.

Now let me check whether the spike stubs return immediately or simulate blocking.

Read , lines 1 to 60

Read , lines 60 to 100

The answer is: no spike result is invalidated, but the spikes did silently get the threading wrong — benignly.

Here is exactly what happened:

In both Spike 3.4 and Spike 3.8, the Java main() calls lib.host_start() directly on the main thread with no wrapping. The call is synchronous and blocking from the Java side — there is no CompletableFuture.runAsync(), no Thread.start(), nothing.

Why it didn't matter: The spike stub host_start() in rust-dll/src/lib.rs does this:

pub extern "C" fn host_start() -> u32 {
    println!("[rust] host_start called on thread {:?}", ...");
    let handle: u32 = 42;
    println!("[rust] host_start returning server handle = {}", handle);
    handle
}

It returns in microseconds. The real production host_start boots an entire Node.js worker and waits up to 30 seconds for it to connect back. The stub never simulated that.

What the spikes were actually testing: Spike 3.4 tested whether JNA can handle callbacks from a native-spawned thread. Spike 3.8 tested whether GraalVM Native Image supports JNA upcalls at all. Neither question has anything to do with how long host_start takes or what thread it runs on. Both answers remain correct.

The gap: The spikes accidentally validated a threading model for host_start that would be wrong in production (blocking the caller's thread for ~30s), but since they never reproduced that latency, they also never exposed anything wrong. The spike infrastructure implicitly assumed host_start is fast. That assumption is buried in the stub, not documented anywhere.

Net result: No spike needs to be re-run. But when writing FfiRuntimeHost (Phase 5), the plan needs to say explicitly: wrap the host_start call in a background thread (the Java equivalent of tokio::task::spawn_blocking / Task.Run), not on the caller's thread.

In this session, we are reducing the ignorance in the copilot-sdk/1917-java-embed-rust-cli-runtime-remove-before-merge/1917-embed-cli-runtime-ignorance-reduction-plan.md by working through the items in Section 3 for which we do not yet have a Resolution:. For starters, read and understand that whole document.

Now we start with ### 3.9 — C ABI parameter semantics

Re-read "### 3.9 — C ABI parameter semantics" and do the spike, according to the same style as previous spikes.

Report your findings and we will refine it into the Resolution: for 3.9.

Now I have enough information to write the spike findings for 3.9. Let me create the spike directory and document:

Created

Here are my findings for 3.9 — C ABI parameter semantics:


Spike completed at: README.md

Method: Pure source-code review of all 5 production SDK implementations (Rust ffi.rs, .NET FfiRuntimeHost.cs, Node.js ffiRuntimeHost.ts, Go ffihost.go, Python _ffi_runtime_host.py) plus their respective client code that constructs the parameters.

Key findings:

  1. argv_json — Always a JSON array: [entrypoint, "--embedded-host", "--no-auto-update", ...optional_args]. Prefix with "node" if entrypoint ends in .js. Optional flags: --log-level, --auth-token-env COPILOT_SDK_AUTH_TOKEN, --no-auto-login, --session-idle-timeout <n>, --remote. Must NOT be null.

  2. env_json — Exactly 3 known keys: COPILOT_SDK_AUTH_TOKEN, COPILOT_HOME, COPILOT_DISABLE_KEYTAR. CAN be null with len=0 when empty.

  3. ext_source, ext_name, conn_token — All 5 SDKs pass null/0 for all three. They are reserved/future extension points. Java must do the same.

  4. user_data — Passing null is safe (Python, .NET-legacy, and Node.js all do this). Java should pass Pointer.NULL and use closure/field capture.

  5. Wire format — LSP Content-Length:\r\n\r\n<payload> framing (same as stdio). NOT binary length-prefixed. The existing Java JsonRpcClient handles this unchanged.

  6. Buffer lifetimeconnection_write copies synchronously. No need to keep the byte array alive after the call.

  7. No error retrieval function exists. Failure is indicated solely by return value 0 (host_start, connection_open) or false (write, close, shutdown).

  8. One connection per server — all SDKs use exactly one connection per server handle. Java should follow suit.

  9. Shutdown order — set closing flag → connection_close → drain active callbacks → host_shutdown → release references.

Ready for you to refine into the Resolution: for 3.9.

It seems to me the Resolution: for 3.9 could be simply, "Read the content of spike-3-9-c-abi-parameter-semantics/ for the resolution. However, I think that would negatively impact the result quality. What do you think?

18:18 Response

Updated todo list

You're right — it would negatively impact result quality. Here's why:

The resolutions for 3.1–3.8 are all self-contained decision records inline in the plan. An implementer (human or AI agent) executing Phase 4 can read the plan document linearly and get every actionable decision without opening spike subdirectories. The spike directories are evidence — the resolutions are extracted conclusions.

Section 3.9 is especially critical because it's the parameter cookbook. When someone writes FfiRuntimeHost.java (step 4.4), they need to know: "what JSON do I build for argv? what keys go in env? do I pass null for ext_source?" If the answer is "go read another file," that's a context switch that slows down every reference.

My recommendation: Write an inline resolution that contains:

  1. The complete parameter-value table (compact — what to pass, not why)
  2. The three key invariants (argv never null; env can be null; all three metadata buffers always null)
  3. The wire format confirmation (LSP Content-Length framing, buffer copied synchronously)
  4. A one-line reference to the spike for the full evidence trail

This matches the pattern of 3.4 ("Read the spike at spike-3-4.../ ... Answers to the open questions: ...") and 3.6 ("Read these three spike apps... Implementation guidance:...") — both contain the decisions inline and point to the spike for proof.

Want me to draft that resolution and insert it into the plan?

18:24 Prompt

Now we come to "### 3.10 — Error handling and diagnostics"

Question: How should FFI-level errors be surfaced to the Java SDK user?

The C ABI functions return uint32_t handles or bool success flags. When they fail:

  1. Is there an error message channel? (e.g., a copilot_runtime_last_error function, or is error info logged to stderr?)
  2. Should FFI failures be wrapped in a new exception type (e.g., FfiTransportException) or use existing SDK exception types?
  3. How should the SDK handle a native crash/abort (e.g., Rust panic that unwinds through FFI)? JNA's protected mode can catch SIGSEGV on some platforms, but this is best-effort.
  4. How should the SDK log FFI-level diagnostics (library loading, callback events)?

What does .NET do for FFI-level errors?

Let me also check what logging framework the existing Java SDK uses:

Searched for regex import.*logging|Logger|logger\. (**/java/src/main/java/**/*.java), 42 results

Here's what .NET does for FFI-level errors:

1. Exception type: .NET uses its standard InvalidOperationException (a general-purpose runtime exception) for all FFI failures. There is no dedicated FFI exception type. Specific error messages include the operation that failed plus context:

  • "copilot_runtime_host_start failed (library '{path}', entrypoint '{path}')."
  • "copilot_runtime_connection_open failed."
  • "FFI runtime library not found. Looked for '{path1}' and '{path2}'."
  • "Failed to load FFI runtime library '{path}'."
  • "FFI runtime library is missing the '{export}' export."

2. No error retrieval from native: No last_error API is called — .NET relies solely on the return value (0 = failure) and constructs its own diagnostic strings.

3. Native crash handling: .NET does nothing special — no SEH guards, no AccessViolationException catching. A Rust panic across FFI would terminate the process. This is an accepted tradeoff.

4. Logging: Uses ILogger (the .NET standard logging abstraction):

  • LogDebug on successful start (library, server_id, connection_id)
  • LogDebug with exception for connection_close and host_shutdown failures during dispose (swallowed — cleanup is best-effort)

5. Callback error containment: The outbound callback (OnOutboundStatic) does a null/zero guard but does NOT wrap in try-catch — if FeedInbound throws, it propagates into native code. Go and Python are more defensive here (Go recover()s, Python catches all exceptions and logs).

6. Dispose error swallowing: During Dispose(), both connection_close and host_shutdown are wrapped in try-catch with LogDebug — errors during teardown are logged but swallowed, ensuring disposal completes.

Summary pattern: .NET uses the language's standard "operation failed" exception, descriptive messages, structured logging, no native crash protection, and best-effort teardown.

I will cite your research for what .NET does for FFI-level errors and say what I want for each one.

1. Exception type: .NET uses its standard InvalidOperationException (a general-purpose runtime exception) for all FFI failures. There is no dedicated FFI exception type.

This approach is acceptable for Java.

2. No error retrieval from native: No last_error API is called — .NET relies solely on the return value (0 = failure) and constructs its own diagnostic strings.

Quickly research if we can do something better in Java on this one.

3. Native crash handling: .NET does nothing special — no SEH guards, no AccessViolationException catching. A Rust panic across FFI would terminate the process. This is an accepted tradeoff.

This approach is acceptable for Java.

4. Logging: Uses ILogger (the .NET standard logging abstraction):

This approach is acceptable for Java. Use existing java.util.logging.

5. Callback error containment: The outbound callback (OnOutboundStatic) does a null/zero guard but does NOT wrap in try-catch — if FeedInbound throws, it propagates into native code. Go and Python are more defensive here (Go recover()s, Python catches all exceptions and logs).

6. Dispose error swallowing: During Dispose(), both connection_close and host_shutdown are wrapped in try-catch with LogDebug — errors during teardown are logged but swallowed, ensuring disposal completes.

This approach is acceptable for Java. Furthermore, we already tout our AutoCloseable support in Java so we need to very good at cleaning up.

Let me research those two items.

Item 2 — Better error retrieval from native:

Searched for regex copilot_runtime_.*error|copilot_runtime_.*diagnostic|copilot_runtime_.*last|copilot_runtime_.*message, 3 results

No additional exports exist. Let me check if the runtime logs to stderr and whether any SDK captures that:

Searched for regex stderr|StandardError|console.*error|log.*ffi|tracing (**/dotnet/src/**/*.cs), 77 results

Interesting — .NET captures stderr for the subprocess transport but does NOT capture it for FFI. The FFI host has no stderr pipe since the runtime is in-process.

Now let me research JNA callback exception behavior:

Fetched https://java-native-access.github.io/jna/5.16.0/javadoc/com/sun/jna/Callback.html

Fetched https://java-native-access.github.io/jna/5.16.0/javadoc/com/sun/jna/Callback.UncaughtExceptionHandler.html

Now let me check how JNA's Native class handles the default exception handler:

Fetched https://java-native-access.github.io/jna/5.16.0/javadoc/com/sun/jna/Native.html

I now have all the information needed. Here are the research findings:


Item 2 — Better error retrieval from native:

No improvement is possible. The C ABI has no copilot_runtime_last_error export, and Native.getLastError() (which retrieves OS-level errno/GetLastError) is irrelevant — the Rust runtime doesn't set OS error codes, it returns 0 on failure. All 5 SDKs construct their own diagnostic strings from the library path and entrypoint. Java should do the same. There's nothing additional to retrieve.

Item 5 — Callback error containment:

Java can and should do better than .NET here. JNA has a built-in mechanism for this:

  1. JNA's Callback contract explicitly states: "A callback should generally never throw an exception, since it doesn't necessarily have an encompassing Java environment to catch it. Any exceptions thrown will be passed to the default callback exception handler." JNA intercepts exceptions thrown from callbacks and routes them to Callback.UncaughtExceptionHandler rather than letting them unwind into native code.

  2. However, relying on JNA's default handler alone is insufficient. The default handler just prints to stderr. The Java implementation should do two things:

    • Wrap the callback body in try-catch (like Go and Python do) to catch all exceptions, log them via java.util.logging, and prevent any exception from reaching JNA's handler at all. This is the primary defense.
    • Register a Callback.UncaughtExceptionHandler via Native.setCallbackExceptionHandler() as a belt-and-suspenders secondary defense, logging any exceptions that slip through.

This matches Go's recover() and Python's except Exception patterns — both are more defensive than .NET. The Go code even comments: "Nothing may panic across the FFI boundary."

Summary of recommendations for the resolution:

Question Answer
1. Error message channel None exists. Return value only. Construct diagnostic strings from library path + entrypoint.
2. Exception type No dedicated FFI exception type. Use IllegalStateException (matching .NET's InvalidOperationException analog in Java).
3. Native crash handling Nothing special. Rust panic across FFI = JVM termination. Accepted tradeoff.
4. Logging java.util.logging (existing SDK pattern). Log at FINE/DEBUG for startup success, teardown failures.
5. Callback safety Wrap callback body in try-catch + log (Go/Python pattern). Register Callback.UncaughtExceptionHandler as secondary defense.
6. Dispose/close errors Swallow and log at FINE/DEBUG. Ensure AutoCloseable.close() always completes.

Done. The resolution for 3.10 explicitly answers all four questions:

  1. Error message channel — none exists; construct diagnostic strings from library/entrypoint paths
  2. Exception type — no dedicated FFI exception; use IllegalStateException (matching .NET's InvalidOperationException), with IOException for write failures
  3. Native crash handling — nothing special; Rust panic = process termination; do NOT enable JNA protected mode
  4. Loggingjava.util.logging at FINE for startup/teardown, WARNING for callback errors

Plus two Java-specific improvements over .NET: defensive callback try-catch (Go/Python pattern) and JNA UncaughtExceptionHandler as secondary defense.
